The weirdest thing. To my great scare I found myself suddenly blacklisted at relays.osirusoft.com:
nslookup 70.160.109.194.relays.osirusoft.com Server: localhost Address: 127.0.0.1
Non-authoritative answer: Name: 70.160.109.194.relays.osirusoft.com Address: 127.0.0.2
WTF?? So, I ran over to another shell server, and did the same. And, lo and behold, I was not listed. Then I killed and restarted BIND on this machine; and, lo and behold, I appear not listed again! WTF??
Yes.. WTF.. Where the Frig have you been? *grin*
You've just not been paying attention to the news.. OSIRUSOFT is in fact dead, and has been for months. They went offline as a result of a sustained DDOS attack. The news of the OSIRUSOFT death was HEAVILY broadcast on this list, the SA website, the SA news site, slashdot, NANAE, and just about every other spam and geek related forum in the world. Even ZDNet carried it.

That's why the OSIRUSOFT lists no longer exist in SA... They were removed in 2.60 rc3, and are gone in 2.60 final.
When the owner of OSIRUSOFT took the lists down, he decided to make the server list *everything* in an effort to force system administrators to realize the list was down.
How is this possible? Is someone deliberately poisoning DNS for relays.osirusoft.com? At any rate, I removed their checks altogether; something sure is fishy!
Yeah, the owner poisoned the DNS himself so you'd get off your butt and remove their lists. Apparently it was effective, albeit VERY late on your part.
